Summary

The goal of the project is to describe novel factors affecting outcome after elbow fracture surgery with an in-depth evaluation of the role played by neuro inflammation from concomitant peripheral nerve injury or head injury in elbow fracture outcomes.

Among all upper limb fractures, elbow trauma is the most frequently associated with a severe impact on patient function and quality of life. One of the main reasons for poor outcomes is the complexity of the elbow joint, which involves three bones and two planes of motion, essential to position the hand in space. The flexion extension axis is crucial for eating and hygiene, while forearm pro-supination is mandatory for most professions, from office work to manual labour.
